As the title suggests, I’m in the market for a vacuum that doesn’t phone home, not even for initial setup (if possible). This is my first time stepping into home automation so I’m not familiar with the various FOSS projects in the space. I’m comfortable with modding/rooting the vacuum so throw your suggestions, I’ll research them.

    I guess it depends on the household size. I have a 50m² apartment. I only need to empty the dust bin after maybe 5 full cleaning runs.
    I created an automation that tracks the total area cleaned and it will move the robot vacuum to the trash after 200m² cleaned. So I don’t have to remember to take out the trash :)
